Is the current Internet reaching its Limits?

What has happened since the 1970’s:

The web & P2P revolution

The mobile revolution

The wireless internet of objects revolution

• 25 August 2005 – NSF announces the GENI initiative at SIGCOMM

• 19 Dec 2005 – MIT publishes “The Internet is Broken” by David Clark

FUTURE INTERNET, challenges for future networks

• Moving to broadband mobile access

• Boosting networks capacities

• Paving the way for new application and services

• redesigning the architecture to face the new challenges

• Keep the Internet open!

Evolution of the Internet

• The Internet has become a critical part of an economy’s infrastructure• Net-delivered services are reshaping the world (search, media, games etc.)• Tripling the number of people connected • Creative flow of content and processes, increasingly generated by users, not just consumers

• Balance the need for control with the creativity that spawns innovation—and profit?

• “Net Neutrality”

• Before this can happen, the Internet must undergo important changes. Designed in the seventies, it is starting to face technical limitations which hamper its potential.

Future of the Internet

• Multiplicity of novel societal and economic usages are bringing to its limits an Internet architecture that was designed >30 years ago.What is at stake:

Making the Internet Mobile

Making the Internet secure, and trustable

Bringing QoS to consumers

Enabling novel –trusted- applications (RFID/sensor based) and opening new economic prospects

Making the Internet truly end to end broadband

Making the Internet 3D

Making the Internet manageable

• These capabilities go beyond the capabilities of NGN architectures, currently being deployed, primarily by incumbent operators.

• A long term research issue

Imminent Architectural Problems

– Spam.

– Security.

– Denial-of-service.

– Application deployment issues.

Medium Term Architectural Problems

– Congestion control.

– Routing.

– Mobility, Multi-homing

– Architectural ossification.

Long Term Problems

– Address space exhaustion and subsequent fragmentation.

– Security on optically switched networks.

– How to connect billions of small devices.

Multiplicity of initiatives started

q GENI/FIND, US-NSF: a continental-scale, programmable, heterogeneous, networked system driving “clean-slate” future internet / communications research

q AKARI Project, Japan + New Network Architecture forum. Based on Photonic Network System, Overlay Networking, Dynamic Networking, Ubiquitous Networking and Tag (>RFID). Peta bps class backbone, 10G bps access, and 100 billion devices: for diverse usages in the future human society. Planned test bed.

q Future Internet Forum Korea

q German G-Lab initiative (www.future-internet.org): Clean-slate and evolutionary activities; Studies and experiments; Collaboration with international activities foreseen

• French RNRT call 2007 addressed Future Internet under topic "Rupture“; Several research activities on evolutionary Internet (at INRIA, LIP6 etc..), very few on clean slate approach. Focus theme in 2008 planned

• Finland, focused research at Helsinki University of Technology

• ………………………..

Beyond R&D - Some Basic Questions

• How to keep end to end transparency and openness?

• How to ensure proper governance of resources? Who will be the power brokers of tomorrow (gate keepers)?

• What will be the impact on net neutrality issues?

• How will users be empowered and consumer interests safeguarded?

• What international relations policy for R&D? standards?

• Who drives standards? IETF??

• How do we leverage EU industrial strengths in related issues (mobile, broadband, security..)?

Current State of the Art Research in the Cluster: Future Internet

• Both academically-driven and industry-led projects

• Example long-term topics covered:– post TCP/IP protocol research (new approaches to inter-domain routing, high-speed congestion control, load balancing, etc.)

– radical architectural approaches built on strong mobile and wireless background

– virtualization for networking resources

– information-centric paradigm in place of the old host-centric approach

FP7 Research Approaches: Compatible with existing Internet infrastructure

• Develop disruption-tolerant architectures that enable seamless service perception in challenging mobile scenarios (CHIANTI, MobiThin)

• Create a communication resource overlay with autonomic characteristics for the purposes of fast and guaranteed service delivery (EFIPSANS, AUTOI, SOCRATES)

• Develop efficient and fair resource control techniques allowing behavioural flexibility for different technical, social and economic outcomes (TRILOGY, Euro-NF)

FP7 Research Approaches: Disruptive Paradigms

• Leverage Network Coding in architecting and controlling wireless networks in performance-challenged and resource-constrained environments (N-CRAVE)

• Implement an internetworked Publish-Subscribe Internet Routing architecture that restores balance of network economics incentives between sender and receiver (PSIRP)

• Integrate wireless sensor and actuator networks (physical world) efficiently into the future internet (digital world) (SENSEI, SENDORA)

Trilogy – An Architecture for Change

Main Objectives

• Develop a unified control architecture for the Future Internet that can adapt to local operational and business requirements

• Develop and evaluate new technical solutions for key Internet control elements: reachability & resource control

• Assess commercial and social control aspects of the architecture

Trilogy goal

• Our ambition is to narrow the waist again

• By developing a unified control architecture for the Future Internet– & developing Routing & Resource control solutions that fit into it

• so getting back the beautiful properties of the Internet hourglass

Paradigms

Main PSIRP design principles

• Information is multi-hierarchically organised – Higher-level information semantics are

constructed in the form of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), starting with meaningless forwarding labels towards higher level concepts

(e.g., ontologies).

• Information scoping – Mechanisms are provided that allow for limiting

the reachability of information to the parties having access to the particular mechanism that implements the scoping.

• Scoped information neutrality – Within each scope of information, data is only

forwarded based on the given (scoped) identifier.

• The architecture is receiver-driven – No entity shall be delivered data unless it has

agreed to receive those beforehand, through appropriate signalling methods.

ETNA

MAIN IDEAS: • Ethernet as the basic transport technology, even inter-domain

transport.• Flatten the current model, simplifying the current “N” layers (including

IP) to an only-Ethernet model• Routed Ethernet with a new MAC address scheme, the BRIDGED-MAC

address, which is dynamic according to host location (so location inferred from the MAC address)

– Inter Domain Transport Network (now, inter-carrier is based on IP)

– End-to-end Ethernet Transport (connection-oriented end-to–end Ethernet)

– Routed Ethernet for Intra domain

– Carrier Ethernet Transport QoS
